Echo everyone else in this thread. I would love to see this on tape! I was thinking about this...if your motion guy takes the snap each play, the DL is going to eventually get a heck of a jump on the snap. Have you simulated any of that during practice? Just a thought!Good luck coach! Posted again for prosperity (bolded). Airraider..you have a hard count built into this? Yes, we call Jet to the same side as the motion man is lined up.. so he would call something like 6 Wide 17 Jet on 2.. so he knows he has to motion across and give the first cadence, then plant and come back across for the second and get the ball coming back.. or we have just a no play call where he motions and does a hard count.. |

Our long snapper can barely hit the holder on extra points!

Awesome stuff airraider, I like it and it seems to go with other stuff you do, so my vote is "no" you haven't "lost" your mind but may have "misplaced" it, from the horror of watching an 0-7 season  Can't wait to hear how this turns out the next couple weeks, good luck. los |

You were NOT exaggerating, they are small and slow, wow. Interesting, but my guess is the reverse plays take so long to get going, they have little chance if your competition is as fast as you say they are. You are right.. the double reverse scares me a bit.. lol.. the little slot shuffle has been money for us all year.. but the other stuff might just be for show in practice for now.. |

one thing Id stress RIGHT NOW is to get the kids who arent getting the rock TO BLOCK UNTIL THE WHISTLE BLOWS. I see quite a few kids turning to watch the play. Bad habits are hard to break.  |

I think some of the double wing guys here may have just threw up in their mouth a bit watching this.

this is similar to stuff I played around with when running single wing, direct snap to a jet back. i had a tailback in there whod catch it if it was a bad snap though.

I like the fact that you are trying different things that are still linked to your base system. This is how offenses, coaches, and teams evolve. On the other hand, I don't know if ANYTHING will help that collection of turtles ! Seriously, try the new stuff but don't forget the fundamentals like running and blocking! I'm anxious to see your video. |

Well guys.. Ran the stuff for the first series.. drove down and scored.. then center got in some on defense and got hurt.. was too scared to try it with my second team center.. so we shelved it for the night..
Only ran it a few times on the drive.. and ran the screen and the quick shuffle pretty well..
They had a stud DE who we could not hook very well..
I will post some video sometime tomorrow..
ended up losing 24-8.

I think it is fun as an addtion...use it in a no huddle, 4 play variable tops. But hey the kids are having fun and your 0-7....what happens in the game? Kahlife, let the defense adjust to this, then just set it into your empty and look to the MOFO for crossing patterns. 2 deep- 2 in flat- 2 corners makes six. means one Mike all by his lonesome....
Just IMHO.

I guess the best part, the first play of the game we come out in it and they have to call a time out.. small victories my friends.. small victories.. lol

Thanks for adding the video for all to see.
If nothing else it helped get you one touchdown and wasted one of their timeouts.
It will help you in the future too, because anyone who sees the video from that game will be wasting a ton of practice time because it is unlike anything else they've had to lineup against.

ok here comes the questions:
1. how did you get the timing of the snap to go? what training for the center and the backs in motion were needed in indy time?
2. how do you call who goes in motion when to where?

The guy in motion is responsible for the snap count.. he has to adjust his cadence to his speed.. tell him that he can slow down for the snap.. but if he calls for it to early.. hes not going to be able to speed up enough to catch a quick snap.. Center looks and sees just like in a normal snap.. has really been the easiest part of it. We number all of our guys.. and we just call their number and "jet" as the motion.. so a normal play would be. 6 Wide 1 Jet Sprint Right Flood Right or 6 Wide 27 Jet or 6 Wide 1 Jet 47 Power |
